We All Scream for No-Churn Ice Cream

If you’re worried that your ice cream maker might spend another year gathering dust, well … we’re not here to assuage your fears. You just don’t need a fancy machine to make super-satisfying ice cream at home. These easy recipes typically rely on sweetened condensed milk and whipped cream to get that silky texture with exactly zero churning. Here are some recipes for classic flavors (and a few wild cards) to get you started.

Frozen strawberries are key in this recipe — thawed, they’re ready to pulse in the blender right out of the bag, and you might find them to be even sweeter than fresh berries. We like to mix this pink dessert with jelly doughnuts, yogurt-covered pretzels, or even tangy balsamic vinegar.

Matcha powder gives this dessert its cheeky green hue. Press scoops and raspberry jam between mini sesame buns for an inventive snack — that is, if you can keep yourself from simply diving into the ice cream spoon first.
